iPhone 6s Plus

In just a few days, Apple's latest and greatest iPhones will hit shelves across the world. In classic fashion, Apple has given consumers a choice by keeping last year's model available. The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus now sell for a discounted price alongside the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus. For those who may be upgrading from an older phone but don't necessarily need the most expensive option, how does the iPhone 7 compare to the iPhone 6s? The size, weight and form factors are virtually the same. Here are some of the major differences between the two model lines for consideration.

Making the decision of what phone you want to be stuck with for the next year or two can be daunting. For loyal Apple users, even the task of choosing a new iPhone has become more difficult because of Apple's new trend of offering different models. Currently, Apple offers the most recent iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, the previous year's iPhone 6 and 6 Plus and the iPhone 5s for those who refuse to let go of the smaller form factor.

The marquee piece of hardware Apple added to the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus is the pressure sensitive display included in both models. Apple coined it 3D Touch because the display can recognize multiple layers of pressure. While the technology is self explanatory, it still isn't clear exactly where you can take advantage of the feature while using your iPhone.

Some iPhone 6s users have noticed a perplexing issue where the battery percentage in the status bar does not change. Where normally iOS would display the current battery remaining, on affected devices power depletion does not register. Apple has recognized the issue as a software problem and the company is working on a solution. In the meantime, iPhone 6s owners experiencing this quirk can follow the steps below.
